You got me a little curious. All I'd read before was his name.

Feb. 16, 2005

Bruno Santos, who dated 16-year-old Sarah Johnson when he was 19, testified Tuesday in her murder trial.

"Santos, who has been in custody on drug charges since October 2004.

After authorities cleared him as a suspect in the Johnson murders, Santos was deported to Mexico in September 2003, only to return for grand jury proceedings against Sarah the next month.

He was then granted a special visa that allowed him to stay in the country on a probationary basis. On Oct. 30, 2004, he was arrested in Blaine County, Idaho, on charges of drug possession, for which he is awaiting a tentative March 30 trial date.

Jurors did not get to hear about the pending charges, nor about several instances in which Santos had sex with Sarah, at the request of Blaine County prosecutors Jim Thomas and Justin Whatcott, who said they would be compelled to press statutory rape charges against Santos if he testified to sexual activity with a minor."

He was just raping the underage American girls that Americans don't want to.

Cut the guy some slack.

"[prosecutors] said they would be compelled to press statutory rape charges against Santos if he testified to sexual activity with a minor."

Oy gevalt! We wouldn't want them to be "compelled" to do that, would we? Perhaps we can get some MEXICAN prosecutors to do the jobs these folks won't do. Or even French prosecutors. Possibly the Germans will take the job. If not, maybe the Italians. Oh, heck! Call Nigeria, see if ONE attorney in Nigeria will prosecute this guy. Canada? HELLO?....HELLO?.....

As Ted Kennedy asked: Whatever happened to Little Billy?.....
